Ethereum is already seeing a slowdown for the month of June, suggesting that 
it is sticking to established historical trends for the month. With half of 
the month already gone, the altcoin is likely to finish out the month in the 
same trend, and the previous cycle data warns of further price crashes. But 
how far down will the Ethereum price go before it recovers? Ethereum Fighting 
The Bears In June According to data from the CryptoRank website, the month of 
June is the second-worst month for the Ethereum price historically. This comes 
down to its average and median returns, which sit at -6.56% and -5.65%, 
respectively, showing that returns for the month are likely to be red. It 
falls behind only the month of September, which has -10.7% average returns and 
-13.6% median returns. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Burn Explodes 3,194%: Can It 
Change The SHIB Price Trajectory? In the decade that the Ethereum 
cryptocurrency has existed, only a total of three years have the month of June 
ended in green. In contrast, six years have closed in the red, including back 
in 2024 when the Ethereum price tumbled 8.64% in June. So far, the month of 
June 2025 has seen very little gains, with CryptoRank data only showing a 
0.20% increase at the time of writing. This suggests a continuation of the 
established bearish trend, especially with the bear still pushing down the 
price of Bitcoin, and the rest of the crypto market keeps going down with it. 
If the altcoin does stick to its historical performance, then it is possible 
that the price could break below $2,500 before the month is over. However, 
there is still the possibility of a recovery if the Bitcoin price does 
continue to rise. Bullish Sentiment Still Strong Despite the bearish trend of 
June, crypto analysts are still calling for higher prices for Ethereum. One 
analyst, Crypto Patel, predicts a possible short-term crash if the Ethereum 
price drops below $2,500. Patel believes $2,000 is next if this happens. 
However, long-term remains bullish as the crypto analyst believes Ethereum is 
headed for $10,000. Related Reading: Dormant Ethereum Wallet Awakens After 10 
Years With Millions Worth Of ETH Another crypto analyst, Ash Crypto, pointed 
out that ETH is forming a possible golden cross, just one month after Bitcoin 
did. But unlike Bitcoin, which usually takes months to play out a golden cross 
trend, the crypto analyst says Ethereum will begin immediately, and the target 
from here is $3,500. Crypto analyst Lord of Alts also explained that Ethereum 
is actually playing out as expected, with three trends. The first is 
consolidation, then accumulation, before ending in a price expansion. Lord of 
Alts says ETH is entering this trend again and puts the price as high as 
$6,000 by 2026. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com
